Someone great once taught me this:
"the greatness of your dream is only determined by how many dreams it helped to realize."
And its so true.
Its not about my dream, my desire, my calling, my achievements....
Its about US.
What we can achieve together..
What team work really mean..
Went to watch HSM3, and to tell you the truth, it may be a "teenage film", but its so nice...
and when I went back to listen to all the songs that they sang,
this song brought tears to my eyes..
so motivating, so inspiring, so... personal..
well... enjoy the song here...
Lyrics attached below.
Ooooooh, oooooh
Together, together, together everyone,
Together, together, come on lets have some fun
Here and now its time for celebration.
We finally figured it out (yeah yeah)
That all our dreams have no limitations, That's what its all about.
Everyone is special in their own way
We make each other strong (we make each other strong)
We’re not the same, We’re different in a good way
Together's where we belong
(Chorus)
We're all in this together once we know
That we are, We're all stars, And we see that
We're all in this together And it shows
When we stand Hand in hand
Make our dreams come true
(Make our dreams come true)
(Bridge)
Together, together, together everyone
Together, together, come on lets have some fun
Together, were there for each other every time
Together, together come on lets do this right
We're all here and speaking out with one voice
We're going to rock the house (YEAH YEAH!)
the party's on, now everybody make some noise
come on, Scream and shout
We've arrived because we stuck together
Champions one and all
(Chorus)
(All in this together, Together, ahhhh)
(Chorus)
(End)
We're all in this together
When we reach We can fly Know inside
We can make it
We're all in this together
Once we see Theres a chance
That we have And we take it
Were all in this together
All in this Together!!

Exodus: did it really happened?
saw the write up for a documentary film "The Exodus Decoded", and it mentioned how through 6 yrs of research, incontrovertible evidence were found to show that the Exodus did happened, as well as the 10 plagues, the parting of the Red (Reed) sea, and even mount Sinai...
WOW!!!
Its really a faith booster!!
I have attached a Youtube clip of the film.
Let me know if you want a copy to show during CG, or just for your own faith encouragement!!!!!

decision... decision... deciding..
its time for me to decide..
but i dont know which path will be right?
we prayed for open doors that will be super obvious,
and we prayed for doors that should be closed, to be close tightly...
but what is the right decision?
still delaying my decision...
where should i go?
but i dont know which path will be right?

"i with you"
"i am with you..."
stay strong,
hold on,
and keep your head up high..
i am still in control,
i am still in work..
and you are still my son..."
it may be cold,
it may be lonely,
it may look strange,
or out of place...
but i am with you.."
keep holding on?
Is this what You are telling me?
to hold on?
hold on to what?
hold on to when?
hold on to?
keep holding on....
that was what the song say, and what Your spirit say to me...
but is there a future that i can hold on for?
this blog is for all those who think you know who i am.
this blog is for all those who think you know who i am.
i am crazy,
i am a wounded lion,
and i bite.
stay away.
all of you.
a better tomorrow??
somehow, something happened...
and there is nothing that motivate me to go ahead.
markets crashed, and its seem so hard to find clients..
not prospects, but ppl who really want to do their houses.
but then.. who can i blame?
i wasnt there for the fair...
and that is all another story...
communication seem to break down between us.
reading your email, and i can't help but agree.
are we living separate lives?
well...that is another story again...
tired of doing things that i am not interested.
if its ur desire, then u do it.
if u are not open, then why get me involve?
ifs u think there are so many tapes to cross, and its based on ur own experiences, then stay out of what i am doing.
i hate rules.
i hate boxes.
i hate limitations.
i hate tapes.
i hate guarded hearts.
its all another story all together...
my father's business....
what is his business for me?
i don't know anymore.
its seem so different...
something is wrong...
and it has to stop somewhere, and somehow...
tomorrow....
what will tomorrow bring?

He Can Do The Impossible
He Can Do The Impossible
by Max Lucado
(The Applause of Heaven)
The kingdom of heaven.
Its citizens are drunk on wonder.
Consider the case of Sarai.
She is in her golden years, but God promises her a son.
She gets excited.
She visits the maternity shop and buys a few dresses.
She plans her shower and remodels her tent ...
But no son.
She eats a few birthday cakes and blows out a lot of candles ...
Still no son.
She goes through a decade of wall calendars ...
Still no son.
So Sarai decides to take matters into her own hands.
("Maybe God needs me to take care of this one.")
She convinces Abram that time is running out.
("Face it, Abe, you ain't getting any younger, either.")
She commands her maid, Hagar, to go into Abram's tent and see if he needs anything.
("And I mean 'anything'!")
Hagar goes in a maid.
She comes out a mom.
And the problems begin.
Hagar is haughty.
Sarai is jealous.
Abram is dizzy from the dilemma.
And God calls the baby boy a "wild donkey"
An appropriate name for one born out of stubbornness and destined to kick his way into history.
It isn't the cozy family Sarai expected.
And it isn't a topic Abram and Sarai bring up very often at dinner.
Finally, fourteen years later, when Abram is pushing a century of years and Sarai ninety ...
When Abram has stopped listening to Sarai's advice, and Sarai has stopped giving it ...
When the wallpaper in the nursery is faded and the baby furniture is several seasons out of date ...
When the topic of the promised child brings sighs and tears and long looks into a silent sky ...
God pays them a visit and tells them they had better select a name for their new son.
Abram and Sarai have the same response:
laughter.
They laugh partly because it is too good to happen and partly because it might.
They laugh because they have given up hope, and hope born anew is always funny before it is real.
They laugh at the lunacy of it all.
They laugh because that is what you do when someone says he can do the impossible.
They laugh a little at God, and a lot with God--for God is laughing, too.
Then, with the smile still on his face, he gets busy doing what he does best--the unbelievable.
He changes a few things
Beginning with their names.
Abram, the father of one, will now be Abraham, the father of a multitude.
Sarai, the barren one, will now be Sarah, the mother.
But their names aren't the only things God changes.
He changes their minds.
He changes their faith.
He changes the number of their tax deductions.
He changes the way they define the word impossible.

Vintage Leadership Wisdom
"I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize.
The first is gentleness;
The second is frugality;
The third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others.
Be gentle and you can be bold;
Be frugal and you can be liberal;
Avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men."
Lao-Tzu (fl. B.C. 600)

Hard Earn Victory?
Victory In Life Can Only Be Achieved If You Are Willing To Fight For It
Success in Life Principles
By Dr. Robb Thompson
Success in Life Principles
By Dr. Robb Thompson
Sunday, October 5, 2008
what doesn't belong to you... doesnt belong to you...
what doesn't belong to us,
will never belong to us,
no matter how hard we try...
a simple principle...
yet, something so hard for us to understand, when we are focus on our self,
our goals,
our visions,
and even to a degree, our ministry..
a long time ago, i went through the pain of how the knight is feeling..
i thought i have everything laid out before me to be the leader...
after all, i took 2 CG's admin, was leading discipleship sessions, planned activities...
i was in a way, the "bro" that everyone knew...
but somehow, it wasnt my time, and my season..
and when God has to take it away, i couldnt let go..
what was meant to be a "smooth handover" became a tear in my heart..
a hurt that till now, 5 yrs from when it all started,
i am still limping..
limping with a hurt,
limping with regrets,
limping with fallen hopes,
limping with a failure to follow my father..
comin back to usher..
was not what my father has in plan for me..
i couldnt see his reason, nor what he has in plan for me..
neither did i see how God can bring me back to CG..
came back, and what DT has taught me, and with what I thought was God's calling for me, things happened and before I knew it, i was back to lead..
went and assist a section to grow and bear fruits that other boasted about..
went to make the smallest, became the strongest..
but somehow, somewhere, i always ask myself..
will it all be different if i didnt try so hard to hold on to something that wasnt mine, at that time?
will i be doing something else?
it may not mean that i am goin to do something more meaningful, or will do more of God's plan..
but will i be different?
i dont know..
and i guess... i will never know..
my father is so near, yet so far..
everything i am today, was becoz of his leadership and love..
but yet... i feel like i am driving into a wall each time i want to press in again..
what is in my hand right now?
or should i ask.. what is the destiny that God has called me to?
to be a minister of faith, love and hope,
to minister to the weak, and to share the gospel to the lost...
that was the calling that i accepted more than 5 yrs ago..
and to day, i am trying to live up to it..
but everything that i am doing now.. dont really point toward that direction..
or maybe..just one area... recruitment... and within my group of achievers and EG..
am i destined to miss the boat?
and miss the thousands of lives?
i still have the drawing of the vision that God gave me, regarding sharing the gospel to thousands..
but is it destined to remain only in my memory,
or will it come to pass?

new start... new results?
every new start pose 1 simple question...
whether will it result in growth,or will it enlarge the weakness of the people..
well.. i can't say for others, but i know for sure,
we can never do the same things, hopin for a different results.
even if we have produced results, we can't just use the old formula..
we have to revamp, and improve...
and this is what every leader has to seek to achieve..
let's start from today!!
